[0063] The detailed description and technical content of this utility model will be explained in conjunction with the drawings below. However, the drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0064] This utility model provides a high-current connector for mating with a pair of connectors (not shown in the figure). Please refer to... Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the first embodiment of the high-current connector of this utility model mainly includes an insulating shell 100, a first terminal group 200 and a second terminal group 300.

[0065] The insulating housing 100 includes a main housing 110, an inner housing 120, a first plug-in plate 130, and a second plug-in plate 140. In this embodiment, the inner housing 120 is used for the first terminal group 200 and the second terminal group 300 to be assembled and then assembled together into the main housing 110, thereby facilitating the assembly of the components. However, this utility model is not limited to this; for example, the main housing 110 and the inner housing 120 can also be integrally formed components. The main housing 110 defines a plug-in direction D1, a stacking direction D2, and an arrangement direction D3 that are perpendicular to each other. More specifically, with Figure 4 For example, the insertion direction D1 is the front-to-back direction of the main housing 110, the stacking direction D2 is the vertical direction of the main housing 110, and the arrangement direction D3 is the left-to-right direction of the main housing 110. The first insertion plate 130 and the second insertion plate 140 extend from the main housing 110 along the insertion direction D1, and the first insertion plate 130 and the second insertion plate 140 are arranged in parallel along the arrangement direction D3, so that a portion of the mating connector is accommodated between the first insertion plate 130 and the second insertion plate 140.

[0066] The first terminal group 200 is configured corresponding to the first plug-in plate 130, and the first terminal group 200 mainly includes a plurality of first conductive terminals 210 and a first insulating partition 220. In this embodiment, some of the first conductive terminals 210, the first insulating partition 220 and the remaining first conductive terminals 210 are stacked in parallel along the stacking direction D2, that is, in this embodiment, each first conductive terminal 210 is divided into two parts by the first insulating partition 220, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0067] The second terminal group 300 is configured corresponding to the second plug-in plate 140, and the second terminal group 300 mainly includes a plurality of second conductive terminals 310 and a second insulating partition 320. In this embodiment, some of the second conductive terminals 310, the second insulating partition 320 and the remaining second conductive terminals 310 are stacked parallel to each other along the stacking direction D2. That is, in this embodiment, each second conductive terminal 310 is divided into two parts by the second insulating partition 320, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0068] Therefore, since some of the first conductive terminals 210, the first insulating partition 220, and the remaining first conductive terminals 210 are sequentially stacked parallel to each other along the stacking direction D2, and some of the second conductive terminals 310, the second insulating partition 320, and the remaining second conductive terminals 310 are sequentially stacked parallel to each other along the stacking direction D2, the current carrying capacity and power adaptability of each first conductive terminal 210 and each second conductive terminal 310 can be effectively increased, thereby enabling the high-current connector of this invention to stably and efficiently transmit high current. Furthermore, since the first insulating partition 220 divides each first conductive terminal 210 into two parts, and the second insulating partition 320 also divides each second conductive terminal 310 into two parts, the selectivity and applicability of the circuit configuration can be increased.

[0069] Further explanation: the first terminal group 200 includes at least one first positioning post 230, and the second terminal group 300 includes at least one second positioning post 330. The first positioning post 230 passes through each first conductive terminal 210 and the first insulating partition 220, thereby connecting and positioning each first conductive terminal 210 and the first insulating partition 220 in series. The second positioning post 330 passes through each second conductive terminal 310 and the second insulating partition 320, thereby connecting and positioning each second conductive terminal 310 and the second insulating partition 320 in series. In this embodiment, there are two first positioning posts 230 and two second positioning posts 330 to effectively position each first conductive terminal 210 and the first insulating partition 220, and each second conductive terminal 310 and the second insulating partition 320 to prevent rotation. However, this invention is not limited to this; for example, the number of first positioning posts 230 and second positioning posts 330 can also be one or more.

[0070] Furthermore, each first conductive terminal 210 has a first protrusion 211, and each second conductive terminal 310 has a second protrusion 311. The first protrusion 211 of each first conductive terminal 210 protrudes toward the corresponding first conductive terminal 210, and the second protrusion 311 of each second conductive terminal 310 protrudes toward the corresponding second conductive terminal 310. In other words, the first protrusions 211 of each first conductive terminal 210 and the second protrusions 311 of each second conductive terminal 310 are arranged opposite to each other and protrude toward each other. Thus, when the high-current connector of this invention is mated with the mating connector, the first protrusions 211 and the second protrusions 311 can clamp a lap portion of the mating connector, thereby forming a stable electrical connection between the two.

[0071] For further explanation, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the first terminal group 200 further includes at least one first connecting terminal 240, and the second terminal group 300 further includes at least one second connecting terminal 340. Each first conductive terminal 210 has a first slot 212. One end of the first connecting terminal 240 is secured in the first slot 212, and the other end of the first connecting terminal 240 extends to the outside of the main housing 110 to facilitate electrical connection with a circuit board (not shown) via a cable (not shown) or a bus (not shown), thereby enabling various applications according to different needs. Each second conductive terminal 310 has a second slot 312. One end of the second connecting terminal 340 is secured in the second slot 312, and the other end of the second connecting terminal 340 extends to the outside of the main housing 110 to facilitate electrical connection with the circuit board via the cable or the bus, thereby enabling various applications according to different needs.

[0072] In this embodiment, there is one first connecting terminal 240 and one second connecting terminal 340. Therefore, each first conductive terminal 210 is electrically connected to each other, and each second conductive terminal 310 is also electrically connected to each other. However, this invention is not limited to this. For example, there may also be two first connecting terminals 240 and two second connecting terminals 340. Each first connecting terminal 240 is electrically connected to the first conductive terminals 210 in the two parts separated by the first insulating partition 220, and each second connecting terminal 340 is electrically connected to the second conductive terminals 310 in the two parts separated by the second insulating partition 320. This forms four independent terminal groups for users to plan and use. Therefore, this invention does not particularly limit the number of first connecting terminals 240 and second connecting terminals 340. The number of first connecting terminals 240 and second connecting terminals 340 can be adjusted according to different needs.

[0073] See also Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the high-current connector of this utility model also includes a pair of clamping springs 400. Each clamping spring 400 is disposed on the main housing 110 of the insulating housing 100, and is respectively located on the outer side of the first plug plate 130 and the outer side of the second plug plate 140. Therefore, the first plug plate 130, the second plug plate 140, the first terminal group 200 and the second terminal group 300 are all located between the clamping springs 400 along the arrangement direction D3. Thus, when the high-current connector of this utility model is mated with the mating connector, the mating connector can be elastically clamped by the clamping springs 400, thereby effectively ensuring the mating stability between the two.

[0074] Please continue reading. Figures 6 to 9As shown, the second embodiment of the high-current connector of this utility model differs from the first embodiment mainly in that it further includes a third terminal group 500, and the insulating housing 100 further includes at least a third plug plate 150, as detailed below.

[0075] In this embodiment, the first terminal group 200, the second terminal group 300, and the third terminal group 500 are first assembled into the inner housing 120 of the insulating housing 100, and then assembled together into the main housing 110, thereby facilitating the assembly of each component. However, this utility model is not limited thereto. The third plug plate 150 extends out of the main housing 110 along the plugging direction D1, and the third plug plate 150 is arranged parallel to the first plug plate 130 and the second plug plate 140 along the arrangement direction D3, so that a part of the mating connector is accommodated between the first plug plate 130 and the second plug plate 140, and the other part of the mating connector is accommodated between the second plug plate 140 and the third plug plate 150.

[0076] The third terminal group 500 is configured corresponding to the third plug-in board 150, and the third terminal group 500 includes a plurality of third conductive terminals 510 and at least one third insulating partition 520. A portion of the third conductive terminals 510, the third insulating partition 520, and the remaining third conductive terminals 510 are sequentially stacked parallel to each other along the stacking direction D2. In this embodiment, the number of first insulating partitions 220, second insulating partitions 320, and third insulating partitions 520 are all multiple, thereby dividing each first conductive terminal 210, each second conductive terminal 310, and each third conductive terminal 510 into multiple portions.

[0077] Therefore, since the first conductive terminals 210 and the first insulating partitions 220 are stacked parallel to each other along the stacking direction D2, the second conductive terminals 310 and the second insulating partitions 320 are stacked parallel to each other along the stacking direction D2, and the third conductive terminals 510 and the third insulating partitions 520 are also stacked parallel to each other along the stacking direction D2, the current carrying capacity and power adaptability of the first conductive terminals 210, the second conductive terminals 310 and the third conductive terminals 510 can be effectively increased, thereby enabling the high-current connector of this invention to transmit high current stably and efficiently. Furthermore, since the first insulating partitions 220 divide the first conductive terminals 210 into multiple parts, the second insulating partitions 320 divide the second conductive terminals 310 into multiple parts, and the second insulating partitions 320 also divide the second conductive terminals 310 into multiple parts, the selectivity and applicability of the circuit configuration can be increased.

[0078] Further explanation: the third terminal group 500 also includes at least one third positioning post 530. The third positioning post 530 passes through each third conductive terminal 510 and each third insulating partition 520, thereby connecting and positioning each third conductive terminal 510 and each third insulating partition 520. In this embodiment, there are two third positioning posts 530 to effectively position each third conductive terminal 510 and each third insulating partition 520 to prevent rotation. However, this invention is not limited to this; for example, the number of third positioning posts 530 can also be one or more.

[0079] In this embodiment, each first conductive terminal 210 has a pair of first branch segments 213, and each first branch segment 213 of each first conductive terminal 210 is arranged along the arrangement direction D3 on opposite sides of the first plug-in plate 130. Each second conductive terminal 310 has a second branch segment 313, and each second branch segment 313 of each second conductive terminal 310 is arranged along the arrangement direction D3 on opposite sides of the second plug-in plate 140. Each third conductive terminal 510 has a third branch segment 513, and each third branch segment 513 of each third conductive terminal 510 is arranged along the arrangement direction D3 on opposite sides of the third plug-in plate 150. Therefore, unlike the first embodiment, conductive terminals are formed on opposite sides of the first plug-in plate 130, the second plug-in plate 140, and the third plug-in plate 150 in this embodiment, while conductive terminals are only formed on opposite sides of the first plug-in plate 130 and the second plug-in plate 140 in the first embodiment. Furthermore, each first branch segment 213 has a first protrusion 211, and the first protrusion 211 of each first branch segment 213 protrudes in a direction away from the first plug plate 130. Each second branch segment 313 has a second protrusion 311, and the second protrusion 311 of each second branch segment 313 protrudes in a direction away from the first plug plate 130. Each third branch segment 513 has a third protrusion 511, and the third protrusion 511 of each third branch segment 513 protrudes in a direction away from the first plug plate 130. Thus, when the high-current connector of this utility model is mated with the mating connector, the multiple overlapping portions of the mating connector can be clamped by each first protrusion 211, each second protrusion 311, and each third protrusion 511, thereby forming a stable electrical connection between the two.

[0080] Furthermore, the third terminal group 500 in this embodiment also includes a third connecting terminal 540. Each third conductive terminal 510 has a third slot 512, one end of the third connecting terminal 540 is secured in each third slot 512, and the other end of the third connecting terminal 540 extends to the outside of the main housing 110 to facilitate electrical connection with the circuit board via the cable or the bus, thereby enabling various applications according to different needs.

[0081] It is worth mentioning that the insulating housing 100 in this embodiment also includes a pair of external connector plates 600. Each external connector plate 600 extends from the main housing 110 along the insertion direction D1. Each external connector plate 600 is arranged parallel to the first connector plate 130, the second connector plate 140, and the third connector plate 150 along the arrangement direction D3, and the first connector plate 130, the second connector plate 140, and the third connector plate 150 are located between each external connector plate 600. In addition, each clamping spring 400 in this embodiment is also disposed on the main housing 110 of the insulating housing 100, but each clamping spring 400 is respectively located on the outside of each external connector plate 600. Therefore, the first connector plate 130, the second connector plate 140, the third connector plate 150, the first terminal group 200, the second terminal group 300, and the third terminal group 500 are all located between each clamping spring 400 along the arrangement direction D3. Therefore, when the high-current connector of this utility model is connected to the docking connector, the docking connector can be elastically clamped by each clamping spring 400, thereby effectively ensuring the docking stability between the two.

[0082] The high-current connector of this utility model has a first terminal group 200 corresponding to the first plug plate 130, and a portion of the first conductive terminals 210, the first insulating partition 220 and the remaining first conductive terminals 210 are stacked in parallel along the stacking direction D2. The second terminal group 300 corresponding to the second plug plate 140 has a portion of the second conductive terminals 310, the second insulating partition 320 and the remaining second conductive terminals 310 stacked in parallel along the stacking direction D2. Therefore, the current carrying capacity and power adaptability of the connector can be effectively improved, thereby enabling stable and efficient transmission of high current.

[0083] In summary, the foregoing disclosure of this utility model is intended to enable those skilled in the art to clearly understand the technical content of this utility model and implement it accordingly, and is not intended to limit the scope of patent protection of this utility model. In addition, this utility model may have other embodiments not listed. Without departing from the spirit and essence of this utility model, those skilled in the art should be able to devise various corresponding changes and modifications based on this utility model, but all such changes and modifications should fall within the scope of protection of the patent application filed for this utility model.
